Slush Punch

With the summer heat, it seems all I do is eat food from the fridge. Or freezer! Thus, the slush. This is one of those fruity refreshing drinks. All together now: ahhh!!

3 c water

1¼ c sugar

1 3-oz. package strawberry Jell-O

2¾ c pineapple juice

1/3 c lemon juice (juice of 3-4 medium lemons)

2 c orange juice

2-liter bottle Sprite

In saucepan combine water, sugar and Jell-O. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil 3 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in pineapple juice, lemon juice and orange juice. Divide into airtight containers and freeze several hours or overnight. When ready to serve, thaw slush for 20 minutes. Break up slush with fork. Fill glass half full with slush and top off with Sprite. Or add broken-up slush to punch bowl and pour entire bottle of Sprite over top. Stir until combined.
